Bath room gut job a couple of winters ago . Super repaired exterior wall damage and hung the dry wall . I pretty much did the rest . A fair amount or rot but all repairable . Moved all the water system to kitchen area .

Turned out great at the end of it all .

I built some counters in the kitchen for the guys to eat at last season . this year We got some cheap tiles and I installed them . Nice having a hard surface to clean .

I took all the water system from the bathroom and moved it into a bigger area . Were on a well that tends to dry up but with this system we can run irrigation water when it's up and running . We have spring water for drinking separate .
